We need few ASL interpreters for our festival this year. This year, the festival date, are March 8 to 17, with a full day of events on weekends, plus some events on weekday evenings and afternoons during the week. We’re offering ASL requests by request.Â
We will pay interpreters $45/hr (plus GST if you charge GST), and plan to have two interpreters assigned to a panel/reading. We will try to offer prep materials whenever possible, and for events where there is no prep material available (because the authors can’t get it to us or it’s a panel), we will definitely have two interpreters present. Events are generally scheduled in two-hour slots, with the last half-hour reserved for book signings and buying books, and we’ll hire interpreters for the full two-hour slot if ASL is requested.  Please contact volunteer@roommagazine.com
Currently, I’m looking to hire interpreters for these slots where requests have come in:
